For multifamily, target markets with strong rental demand, value-add opportunities, and creative financing options like seller financing or private capital.

I'd guess the real number is closer to $30k, since we bought it slightly under market and did some minor work like changed all the appliances. 

It’s a market where cash flow is achievable without needing a massive upfront investment.

How are you coming up with that much larger market rent for all those units?

Focus on networking with local investors, learning market trends in your new area, and deciding on a strategy that fits your goals.Good luck!

Often, I am not able to keep all of my ira funds invested in active loans so I would like to be able to keep the money that is not invested in loans in a liquid "money market" type of fund on a temporary basis.

@Zack Whiting - You are in a top tier market for investment properties!

Of course unless your buying defaulted notes at the get go then again as Chris mentioned this type of fee should be handled up front.. and if it new origination your making and then they go bad.. in your foreclosures you can charge the borrower these fee's when they cure or add it to you opening bid and when someone buys it at the court house you get repaid..

Quote from @Lee Banks: Hi my name is Lee I'm looking too buy my first rental property and but I feel as if I need a mentor to watch, I still need to learn the basics of real-estate does anyone in New York do programs or mentorships and where would you start if you first started real-estate today  Hello Lee,I'd recommend looking up local meetups here on BP, meetup.com and, eventbrite.You can also call around to speak with RE investors and professionals in your target market to begin making connections.With so much available information online, I'd recommend speaking to a few people and doing independent research before committing to mentorships.

@Ellis Moyewe really don't know a lot about this situation since there aren't many details in your post... but i don't think this makes any sense for anyone involved here...if it's a flip that's not selling, refinancing may not solve your problem and allow you to pay back the HML in fulland typically a sub to buyer wants a low interest rate... and if you refinance now you won't be getting a low interest rate, you'll just be getting whatever the market offers.and finally.... the vast majority of loans are NOT assumable.
